    Seema Singh, R. Ramya, V. Sushma, S.R. Roshini, and R. Pavithra

    IEEE
    Facial recognition is a non-invasive method of biometric authentication and useful for numerous applications. The real time implementation of the algorithm with adequate accuracy is required, with hardware timing into consideration. This paper deals with the implementation of machine learning algorithm for real time facial image recognition. Two dominant methods out of many facial recognition methods are discussed, simulated and implemented using Raspberry Pi. A rigorous comparative analysis is presented considering various limitations which may be the case required for innumerable application which utilize facial recognition. The drawbacks and different use cases of each method is highlighted. The facial recognition software uses algorithms to compare a digital image captured through a camera, to the stored face print so as to authenticate a person's identity. The Haar-Cascade method was one of the first methods developed for facial recognition. The HOG (Histogram of Oriented Gradients) method has worked very effectively for object recognition and thus suitable for facial recognition also. Both the methods are compared with Eigen feature-based face recognition algorithm. Various important features are experimented like speed of operation, lighting condition, frontal face profile, side profiles, distance of image, size of image etc. The facial recognition model is implemented to detect and recognize faces in real-time by means of Raspberry Pi and Pi camera for the user defined database in addition to the available databases.

    R.S. Ramya, Naveen Raju, N. Sejal, K.R. Venugopal, S.S. Iyengar, and L.M. Patnaik

    IEEE
    A user query facet is a collection of items that summarizes the content covered by a query. In general, the most significant information of a user query is present in the top retrieved document that are in the form of lists. In this work, we propose a framework Automatic Extraction of Facets for User Queries [AEFUQ] that extract the user query facets automatically by grouping the list based on three categories namely HTML tags, free text patterns and repeat regions. Grouping of the list is based on domain sites present in the list. We observe that some of the lists are not relevant for extracting the facets. In order to prune these lists, the importance of each item in the lists that are present in the group G is evaluated and Cosine Similarity (CS) between two items is calculated. Further, based on CS score obtained, High Quality Clustering (HQC) algorithm is proposed to cluster the items that has the most number of point in each iteration to obtain more number of facets. Finally, the top most items from each cluster are provided as the best facets for the user query. Experiments are conducted on User Q and Random Q dataset. It is observed that the proposed method AEFUQ outperforms by providing a large number of useful query facets compared to QDMiner method [1].

  • Performance Evaluation of Wordlength Reduction Based Area and Power Efficient Approximate Multiplier for Mobile Multimedia Applications
    R. Ramya and S. Moorthi

    Springer Science and Business Media LLC
    AbstractHardware multiplier circuits decide the speed and power consumption in the execution of digital signal processing algorithms. The desirable feature of reduced area and power consumption for battery-driven multimedia gadgets can be realized by replacing the power hungry multiplier circuits with approximate multiplier circuits. The approximation techniques reduce the complexity of the design and improve the energy efficiency of the circuit. This paper proposes an area and power efficient approximate unsigned integer multiplier architecture based on wordlength reduction. It is designed to meet a pre-specified error performance with improved area and power reduction compared with similar designs. It is extended further for the signed multiplier architecture. The circuit characteristics are analyzed to establish the suitability of the proposed design for low-power applications. Synthesis results show that the proposed unsigned multiplier consumes 65% less power than the exact Wallace multiplier. The area requirement of the proposed multiplier reduces by 50% compared to an exact multiplier. The multiplier is tested for image filtering to establish the efficacy of the design in multimedia applications.

    IEEE
    Due to the rapid rise in internet population, the content over web is increasing and a large number of documents assigned by reader’s emotions have been generated through new portals. Earlier works have focused only author’s perspective, our work focuses on reader’s emotions generated by news articles. Social emotions of news articles from reader’s perspective are predicted with the help of user ratings. More specifically, we form Communities based on the ratings that are present in the news articles. Further, a Textual Relevance is computed based on the word frequency for a particular document. Experiments are conducted on the news articles and as a result, it is observed that the proposed method results in predicting reader’s emotions are much better when compared with the existing method Opinion Network Community (ONC) [1].

  • Frequency response masking based FIR filter using approximate multiplier for bio-medical applications
    Ramya R and Moorthi S

    Springer Science and Business Media LLC
    The advancements in medical healthcare networks and bio-medical sensor technologies enabled the use of wearable and body implantable intelligent devices for healthcare monitoring. These battery-operated devices must be capable of very low power operation for ensuring long battery life and also to prevent intense radiations. The major power consuming part of these devices are the multipliers built into the digital filters for performing signal processing operations. This paper proposes a low power signed approximate multiplier architecture for bio-medical signal processing applications. The circuit characteristics and error metrics of the proposed multiplier are estimated to verify its performance advantage over other approximate multipliers. In order to validate the efficacy of the approximate multiplier in real time signal processing applications, a band pass finite impulse response filter (FIR) filter is designed using frequency response masking technique and used in the Pan Tompkins method for the extraction of QRS complex from raw ECG data. The sensitivity, positive predictivity, and detection error rate of the QRS detection method are estimated and the results show that the approximate filtering method implemented gives a comparable performance as that of exact methods.

    R. Ramya and S. Moorthi

    IEEE
    This paper proposes accuracy configurable multi-precision multiplier architecture suitable for signal processing applications. The proposed multiplier can be operated in approximate mode as well as in full-precision mode with variable precision capabilities. The fundamental processing element (PE) is an N/4-bit unsigned multiplier. Sixteen such multipliers are arranged in such a way that N/4, N/2, 3N/4 and N-bit multiplications can be performed in a recursive fashion by combining many or all of the sixteen N/4-bit multipliers depending on predefined modes of operation controlled by the wordlength of input operands. Simulation results show that the proposed design gives significant power savings than the exact multiplier. The proposed architecture can be configured to adapt different levels of precision and well suited for coarse grain reconfigurable architectures.

    R. S. Ramya, Ganesh Singh T., D. Sejal, K. R. Venugopal, S. S. Iyengar, and L. M. Patnaik

    ACM Press
    In recent years, the availability of digital documents over web is increased drastically and there is a need for effective methods to retrieve and organize the digital documents. Since data is dispersed globally and is unorganized, it is a challenging task to develop an effective methods that can generate high quality features in these documents. It is necessary to reduce the gap between users search intention and the retrieved results known as semantic gap. In this paper, Discovering Relevant Documents using Latent Dirichlet Allocation and Cosine Similarity (DRDLC) is proposed. Word similarity is computed using CS Cosine Similarity present in search results documents. LDA is applied on extracted patterns and documents. Hashing is used to extract high relevant documents efficiently. Further, term synonyms are identified using word net and the documents are re-ranked. Experiments using the model Relevance Feature Discovery (RFD) on Reuters Corpus Volume-1 (RCV-1) show that the proposed DRDLC framework results in improved performance by providing more relevant documents to the user input query.

    Ramya Raghavachari and M. Sridharan


    The tremendous increase in the use of portable electronic devices is due to the development in the fields of signal processing and electronic technology. These battery operated devices needs reduction in power consumption with increased performance and long battery life. Since CMOS technology scaling fast approaches its physical limit of minimum supply voltage and smaller feature size, the hardware designer has to opt for new multiplier architectures for achieving low power and high speed performance. This paper proposes an area and power efficient approximate multiplier architecture. The error metrics are estimated to verify its performance advantage over other approximate multipliers. Using Frequency Response masking approach, a 6-band non-uniform digital FIR filter bank is developed using approximate multiplier for hearing aid application. Audiogram matching is done with audiograms of two different types of hearing losses and the matching error is computed. Simulation results show that the audiogram matching error falls within +/- 4 dB range.

  • Review of recent trends in coarse grain reconfigurable architectures for signal processing applications
    Ramya Raghavachari and M. Sridharan


    Coarse grained reconfigurable architecture got the attention of researchers working in designing computing architectures for processing massive streaming data associated with the multimedia applications in portable entertainment and communication electronics. The algorithms for processing audio, video, and graphics are very complex in nature. These data intensive computation algorithms belong to the domain of signal processing. As the complexity of algorithms increases, a matching improvement in speed performance of the hardware becomes essential to maintain the quality of service. The observed growth of algorithmic complexity is much higher than the growth rate of integration density governed by Moore’s law. Also, the constraints on memory bandwidth in the traditional von Neumann architectures along with the slow growth in the battery capacity demands a paradigm shift in computer architecture design. Reconfigurable hardware architecture is proposed as a possible alternative in this regard. The reconfigurable architectures are designed to exploit the regular and repetitive structure of signal processing algorithms and the coarse grained processing elements are designed to match with the word level granularity of these complex algorithms. The research shows that the coarse grain reconfigurable architectures with heterogeneous processing elements are a better option for system design in DSP applications which exploit granularity matching between the algorithms and the processing hardware, and also the inherent parallelism of DSP algorithms for the realization of low power DSP systems.

In the event of detecting wrong password / key, the encryption of medical image has been carried out using Cellular Automata (CA). Authentication has been improved by hardware triggered password. The proposed multiplexed image authentication was implemented on reconfigurable hardware platform Cyclone II FPGA. Hardware utility and power dissipation have been analysed as a part of this work.

  • Optimal spatial pattern for wireless sensor network based on energy minimization in intelligent transportation systems


  • Energy harvesting in wireless sensor networks
    R. Ramya, G. Saravanakumar, and S. Ravi

    Springer India
    In recent years, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have grown dramatically and made a great progress in many applications. But having limited life, batteries, as the power sources of wireless sensor nodes, have restricted the development and application of WSNs which often requires a very long lifespan for better performance. In order to make the WSNs prevalent in our lives, an alternative energy source is required. Environmental energy is an attractive power source, and it provides an approach to make the sensor nodes self-powered with the possibility of an almost infinite lifetime. The goal of this survey is to present a comprehensive review of the recent literature on the various possible energy harvesting technologies from ambient environment for WSNs.
